Tilapia Soft Tacos & Slaw

Last night I had to go grocery shopping and make something quick and delicious for dinner that would keep well for leftovers for today (isn't that always the case with me?).

Tilapia was on sale, and I decided to build a meal around it. No, it's not that I really need to watch my budget, but with the price of food increasing, it's just annoying to be spending so much money at the store. (examples: red pepper $2.50 on sale, avocado $2.40 on sale...seriously?)

Tilapia Soft Tacos (for two meals)
2 pieces of tilapia cooked in a bit of oil and lime juice
1/2 avocado cubed
salsa
sourcream
shredded cheese
tortillas

Directions: spread sourcream on a soft tortilla, add salsa, pieces of tilapia, top with avocado and cheese.

Slaw
1/2 cabbage shredded
1/2 red pepper shredded
1/4 red onion shredded
1/2 can of black beans
a bunch of cilantro chopped
a dash of cumin
a dash of Spanish smoked paprika
salt & pepper
olive oil
juice of 1/2 lime
a few dashes of vinegar

Directions: combine all ingredients, mix, refrigerate for 30 minutes and enjoy!
